It's Hooky Time!

The time has come to start the wonderful granny stripe blanket inspired by the wonderful Lucy at Attic 24.

 The plasterer is booked so project lounge is not far away at all now and we are so very very excited.  It's a bit of a mess at the moment, for some reason the previous owners thought pink and lilac was a beautiful colour scheme (including a lilac ceiling) so when Tom moved in it was a quick slap of magnolia over the top.  There are holes in the walls and bits of skirting board missing so to finally make it nice is someone we are both incredibly excited about.

Tom is taking charge with the stereotypical "man" projects and I am in charge of paint and soft furnishings.  I got a huge quantity of yarn in the Knit Nottingham sale to go with some lovely turquoise I won last summer and I am now ready to hook away.

I started lastnight and today couldn't resist a little hooky time in the garden, blankets looking lovely already don't you think.
